This project, a digital collage, is meant to reflect the calm before the storm of global warming due to the reduction of aerosols and CO2 that the COVID-19 pandemic has brought. We thought about the Himalayan Mountains and how the pollution reduction due to Covid had finally made them visible after being hidden under smog for decades and sought to illustrate the emotions of the mountains in order to communicate how our emissions are affecting our planet.
